now the day is gone and i sit alone and think of you girl
what can i do without you in my life
i guess that our guessing game just had to end that way
the hardest one to lose of all the games we played
but the time is past for living in a dream world
lying to myself can’t make that scene
of wondering if you love me or just making a fool of me
well i hope you understand i just had to go back to the island
and watch the sun go down and watch the sun go down
hear the sea roll in listen to the sea roll in
but i’ll be thinking of you yes and i’ll be thinking of you
and how it might have been thinking how it might have been
hear the night birds cry listen to the night birds cry
watch the sunset die sit and watch the sunset die
well i hope you understand i just had to go back to the island
for all the sunny skies it’s raining in my heart
i know down in my soul i’m really gonna miss you
but it had to end this way with all the games we played
well i hope you understand i just had to go back to the island
and watch the sun go down sit and watch the sun go down
and hear the sea roll in listen to the sea roll in
but i’ll be thinking of you yes and i’ll be thinking of you
and how it might have been thinking how it might have been
hear the night birds cry listen to the night birds cry
watch the sunset die sit and watch the sunset die
well i hope you understand i just had to go back to the island
and watch the sun go down sit and watch the sun go down
hear the sea roll in listen to the sea roll in
but i’ll be thinking of you yes and i’ll be thinking of you
and how it might have been thinking how it might have been
hear the night birds cry listen to the night birds cry
watch the sunset die sit and watch the sunset die
well i hope you understand i just had to go back to the island
watch the ships come in sit and watch the sun go down
wonder where they’ve been listen to the sea roll in
but i’ll be thinking of you darling yes and i’ll be thinking of you
